I have a 14 foot inflatable duckie (DIB). Will this pump be sufficient to pump up my boat? I always hand pump to tighten...fyi

I was able to inflate a 10 ft x10 ft inflatable island in about 4 minutes so I believe this would work especially with hand pump to tighten

Without using the included "regulator" this pump generates enough pressure to burst a Coleman air mattress. (Learned my lesson and I'm substantially more careful now.) It inflates really fast, but it's "ear-splitting, always wear hearing protection" loud. I've used it to inflate large towables. It does the job in a hurry and with plenty of pressure so that there's no need to "top it off" with a hand pump.

I was going to up grade to a 2hp and the shop said no way! So I stayed with a 1hp pump. I have about the same size pool! Running a waterfall and skimmer 1.5" PVC wide open and does a perfect job. Did your old pump do the job? You would probably be ok, but remember more pressure gives the chance for ur canister to fail! Catch 22! Hope that helps.

I've never had the issue since the unit automatically shuts off when demand is complete and it can fill tires quickly. I have not tried to fill an inflatable boat since that would be a better job for a HVLP pump. For tires and the like I'm confident it can handle the job.

No, I don't think 1.5 psi will work. It's a great pump to quickly fill your inflatable; however I always have to top off my 1.5 psi with a foot pump. Yon can purchase a great foot pump with a gauge from "Advanced Elements" I still recommend this pump to do the majority of the fill.

Yes. You have to continue pumping the handle just like you would with an air pump for bikes. This bilge is very capable and can extract large volume of water in short amount of time.

Absolutely.. Only issue seems to be the float switch is intermittent. The way I use it. Is without the float switch (since it doesn't work). But when I plug it in, the pump works great..

My pump is used in a row boat, so it only has to pump up about two feet, which it does with no difficulty.

This pump may be too powerful for the paddle board. I would recommend using the hand pump that is supposed to be supplied with the board.

Yes I have the mericruiser V6 engine in my boat. I was concerned at first the tube you slide down the dip stick tube wasn't long enough but it turned out to be ok and the pump worked great.

Absolutely. I love that boat. Do not over inflate. You will get years of use.

I don't know about your pump but this wasn't an exact replacement for mine. It was about 20 psi lower than I had. I have a 22 foot boat and this was the on demand freshwater pump. It worked great and I ordered a second as a spare. The cost of this pump was lses than half of the pump that was in there. Its been a year. All good.

The pump will work fine. Biggest problem is the pressure switch that comes with it. It is non adjustable and cut in pressure is so low you pretty much run out of water before it kicks in. There are adjustable switches available that are adjustable and not expensive.

I have a 13,500gal. I have no issues. I am running a 1 1/2hp pump. I already had this pump. I believe I could go lower. IMO I think it would be fine.

I believe the recommendation was any pump that wasn't motorized. Sadly, the boat I received deflated too quickly and I returned it. Loved the look of the boat - and I may try another one next season.

We used an air compressor also. It is a pretty big float for a manual pump but one would work. as said by others, your pump would need a pointed end. This is our second season and just filled a couple days ago. Great for keeping you above water while it's still a little brisk.

I use this pump on my 25 ft diameter. It about the size gallon size. So it should work for you

You really need a pump. My friend had one at the lake house where I left this. I'm talking about an electric pump. There are some that plug into the cigarette lighter on a boat that are ideal. It doesn't take terribly long. I cannot comment on using your lungs to blow it up. It would take a long while.
